Bowassin

[Terror]

-=INTRO=-
-The Bowassin is a Assassin which uses the skill Venom, and the Bow. Being that most the damage isn't mostly poison, you don't need some aura to finish off your opponent.Since there isn't a such thing as poison absorb, there is resistances, which can easily be decreased by a mercenary with infinity(runeword with a conviction aura when equipped.

-=STATS=-
STR-Enough for your items, with Annihilus on, and Andy's Visage, little should be put here.

DEX-From items +65 Dex, since your using a bow though, put enough as what you define as "Needed."

VITA-Rest goes here.

NRG-About just making it no higher than 45.

-=SKILLS=-
Venom(20)-This will make u a vicious "B"-u know what!

y wouldnt u use trang gloves for way more psn dmg? if u need the ias then use nosferatus belt.
and how much dmg does she do?

[snoboy]

and ur wrong bout the infinity thign it doesnt give -poison resist

[Terror]

Infinity is a polearm runeword that gives a conviction sura, which minus's defense and resistance of target.

Grim: The reason is the 10% Chance of enchant, which should happen after 10 or less hits, when your pumping out guided hours u'll most likely hit alot. I don't remember the poison dmg on her, my internet with D2 goofed on me, so I can't find out. Also the lgoves give IAS, in which nosferatu's wouldn't be a bad idea, it goes against verdungo's with nothing, verdungo's gives you DR, Vitality, and these are useful mods when not having a shield.

[The-Grim-Reaper]

conviction doesnt minus poison resistance. only light cold and fire.

[[The Reaper]]

I don't think you'll really be able to take hits anyway though, pretty much 1 hit and your done, so you'll have to keep running. Does widowmaker give knockback? Because you might want to do something about that too.

[Nee22]

i made a bowsin but its kinda different then urs i use gskull wit ias jewels, nos belt, 2x 3 shadow skill claws and fire traps.. knock back is nice wit gskull... the only probably is ppl wit a shield hard to kill have to run away alot and doesnt ignore def like is a auto hit except if they have a shield?? so u dont need atk rating???:confused:

[Silver Ice]

try adding a pre-buffing section.
helm: +3 to shadow skills 2 soc 2x 5/5 die psn facets in it
ammy: +3 to shadow skills ammy
armor: bramble
weapons: 2 +3 to shadow discipline +3 to venom claws with 4 (2 each) 5/5 die psn facets
gloves: trangs
rest: sojs arachs perf shadow dancers

ps: pre-buff with cta+spirit first for that extra 1 skill
inventory: anni+10 sd charms.

[tgolson]

can be good if made perfect, but is no comparision to .09 bowas

[DsX-SNiPeR00]

[rice4lyfe]
